The Cofradía de Pescadores delivers the morning’s catch to the restaurants along Gran Tarajal’s seafront promenade every day, and it’s on the menu by lunchtime. At KUMA Gran Tarajal on Calle San Diego, guests have awarded the restaurant 4.9 stars from 120 reviews – a rating that hardly any other restaurant on the south-east coast can match. If you visit the 12 best restaurants in Gran Tarajal, you’ll find yourself sitting alongside fishermen and families from the harbour town rather than in a tourist area. Fresh fish costs less here than elsewhere on Fuerteventura.
Fresh fish, fair prices, no tourist crowds
At lunchtime, business is in full swing between 2 pm and 4 pm; the ‚menú del día‘ comprises three courses, including a drink, and costs between 10 and 14 euros. In most establishments, evening service doesn’t start until around 9 pm. Menus are mainly in Spanish, and smaller establishments such as Comidas Caseras Con Gusto on Calle Vigan prefer cash. Queso majorero, Fuerteventura’s only cheese with a protected designation of origin, features on the menus as a starter or side dish. Pomodoro on Avenida Paco Hierro has received 1,341 reviews.
